About

Daily switch. If a volatility/fear gauge (VIXM) is running hot, go 100% into SPXU (3× inverse S&P 500). If not, own just one YieldMax option‑income fund—MSFO, NVDY, or XOMO—whichever shows the strongest recent momentum.
NutHow it works
Each day it checks VIXM, a fund tied to market “fear.” It uses a 40‑day RSI (a quick score of recent up vs down action). If that score > 69 (fear surging), it puts 100% in SPXU, which targets ~3× the opposite of the S&P 500’s daily move. Otherwise it holds just one YieldMax option‑income ETF—MSFO (MSFT), NVDY (NVDA), or XOMO (Exxon)—whichever has the strongest 40‑day RSI. This tilts toward Tech (MSFT/NVDA) or Energy (XOM) when calm.
CheckmarkValue prop
Out-of-sample: 27.3% annualized return vs 24% S&P, with Calmar ~0.80 and positive alpha. It uses a volatility-triggered hedge (3x inverse SPY) plus momentum-rotated YieldMax income ETFs—targeting higher upside, but note drawdowns can be larger.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
